Timing and coordination of physiological events are regulated by multiple mechanisms.
In plants, physiological events involve interactions between environmental stimuli and internal molecular signals.
Examples:
In animals, internal and external signals regulate a variety of physiological responses that synchronize with environmental cycles and cues.
Examples:
In fungi, protists and bacteria, internal and external signals regulate a variety of physiological responses that synchronize with environmental cycles and cues.
Examples:
Students should be able to:
LO 2.35 design a plan for collecting data to support the scientific claim that the timing and coordination of physiological events involve regulation.
LO 2.36 Justify scientific claims with evidence to show how timing and coordination of physiological events involve regulation.
LO 2.37 Connect concepts that describe mechanisms that regulate the timing and coordination of physiological events.
